When I see clients in my practice, more often than not skin health is among their top concerns. For me, someone's skin health often holds the first clues about what's going on inside the rest of their body. Acne? Redness? Itchy? Bumps? Dryness? Cracking? All of these symptoms are key indicators of a much larger problem.
I was excited to interview Kristen Ma, founder of HolisticVanity.ca and co-founder of Pure + simple spa (where I get my facials!) on how detoxification can improve your skin health.
Here's what we discussed:
- Kristen’s Story: She suffered from acne.
- Detoxification for skin health
- Specific foods and herbs for detoxification
- Lifestyle tips for detoxification
- Tips for managing the stress and anxiety of acne
Watch the video below:
Thank you so much to Kristen for sharing her wisdom and knowledge.

Does your Detox help with inflammation from arthritis. I am enjoying your book and the web site. Thank you
ReplyAbsolutely. When you remove foods that promote inflammation such as gluten and dairy, pain is profoundly reduced. I would recommend you check out the Joyous 10 Day Detox. http://www.joyoushealth.com/joyous-10-day-detox/
Joy and Kristen, Thank you so much for this video. I have suffered with hormonal/stress acne since my teens and I am 22 now. All these tips really made sense and the last one about self-esteem really hit home for me. I am excited to start living a more positive lifestyle to improve my mood and skin! Love all your posts as well as your book! Thanks again, Logan
ReplyIs it normal for skin to get worse before it gets better when you cut out the foods that you're sensitive to or that just aren't good for you. I'm found my acne got worse over the past week.
ReplyHi K K! Things can definitely get worse before they get better. But I assure you, they will get better! Make sure you are drinking tons of water and eating lots of colourful fruits and veggies. All the best! Heather- Joyous Health team
